secrets
----------------------------------------------------------------------
with the darkest of my secrets,
i am plagued with an illness,
created by my own mind
and fortified within my own body
I wait for the day when
I will not be judged for my diseases,
for my own weaknesses,
and finding my strength
within someone I can trust in,
someone who will believe
in my beauty, which lays hidden
beneath years of agony,
digging it up for me to see,
and burying my secrets
